Henry was a favorite in our neighborhood. Everyone loved Henry. He often came over to visit with Troy when he’d see him piddling in the garage on a project. Always upbeat and happy, you could find him almost daily working in his perfectly manicured lawn. He loved animals, never missed a chance to pet a neighbors dog on a walk. And he lovingly adopted “Grey” when he was abandoned by another neighbor. We will miss his waves and warm hellos, he was the perfect neighbor. Troy & Laura Moody
Fair winds and following seas sailor. “Boatswain… Standby to pipe the side… Shipmate’s going Ashore…” Thank you Henry for your service to this nation. U.S. Navy.
